It's now been a week and two days and I still can't get over this sickness. I ended up with a cold last Tuesday and I still can't shake this off. This year I have gotten sick a total of 3 times which is way to much. I tend to get sick, real sick only once a year. WAAAAAH!!! Even with this cold (and Mother Nature) I have been able to push through my workouts. Im gonna be honest, I feel my body right now asking me for a break. She'll get one, a slit one at least. LOL. I just a can't stop, Im addicted . This weather ain't helping either.

Life is precious, life is short, life is what ever you want it to be. Over this last year I have learned so much about myself. one being a people pleaser. Till this day I find myself still doing it even thou I have sworn to do only ME. It’s hard not to when you think of the other person’s feelings. But you get to a point in which you have to say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I would be the type who would do just about anything to keep another person happy, anything to not create confrontation or arguments. That’s not a way to live. Walking around egg shells is not something I was thought to do. It’s amazing because I use to have no filter. Seems that the filter I do have is around the people I truly care about. But what good Im I doing to them if I, as their friend, don’t express my feelings to them. What good I’m I doing to them if I don’t call them out on their faults. I know I’m not perfect and I myself have many things that I have to work on, I recognize that. If you are my friend I expect you to call me on it so that I can work on that and be a better person. A lot of what I do is simply because I don’t care to have drama in my life. Im at a stage in my life where I don’t need to deal with attitudes or all that extra stuff. That’s some 20 year-old (censored). AIN’T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT!!!

What a beautiful day it was, the sun was out and the birds were chirping. Sunday we woke up super early (early for a Sunday) at 6 a.m. to meet the team at Venice Beach for a fitness photoshoot. We took some picture of our results thus far and we will be taking another set in 3 months. The whole purpose of the shoot is to have a picture of where we began with out new nutrition and fitness program. I am now a wellness coach which basically means that I help people loose/maintain/gain weight. All the changes are mostly based on getting their nutrition in check which is 80% of the work while the remaining amount is fitness. I have pushed very hard both in fitness and nutrition but I’m cracking down now more than ever on nutrition. Pushing my body to it’s max, I know there is more to be done. This is the beginning. Follow me on Instagram to see my progress. I’m hosting a 21 day challenge which targets nutrition and fitness...DM on insta if you’d like more info. More pictures to come once the are ready.

I absolutely love this outfit. I know that I tend to wear clothing that is very form fitting and this is not exactly that. Maybe thats the reason why I love it so much. It could also be that I just love the look of over the knee boots with skirts. Don’t know exactly what it is but I absolutely love it. While shooting this look a girl in passing car burst into laughter and scream out, “You know you are in (name of my town).” At the moment I was thrown a bit off and I’m gonna be honest, it was a little hurtful. But then I realized that she has no idea who I am, no idea why I shoot looks and just isn’t up to my level. First off, I wouldn’t have reacted in that form if I had seen a girl doing the same thing. Why react in such a way, why does she care if it’s not Beverly Hills. I’m hustling regardless of what city I’m in. She doesn’t realize that by saying that she puts herself down because it’s obvious she is from the same city (the city isn’t ghetto although she might be). Sorry if I’m bashing her, but it’s these kinds of girls who just put down others to make themselves feel better. I am no way gonna let one girl or any other hater determine what I will do or not do. I keep pushing each and everyday. I’m gonna succeed in my city, Beverly Hills or El Paso, there ain't no stopping me. So if you find negative people in your path, you gotta brush them off and just keeping fighting for what you love. No one said it would be busy, no one said there wouldn’t be obstacle. This who make it are those who regardless of the downfalls they picked themselves up and kept of going. Keep Pushing!!!!

I’ve decided to share a little bit more of myself with you. I’m gonna be sharing my thoughts, struggles and emotions. I want to make you a part of my life, my friend and confidant. I know that this is gonna be come a little more personal but don’t worry, Ill still post all the details on the outfits in each post.

A day ago, I received a phone call that left me questioning everything that I was doing in my life. I have been blogging and making YouTube videos for over 6 years. This is not something new to me, this is not something that I started just last year. This is something that I have been working on for so many years. Many times I thought about giving up, I thought about doing something else but I'm still here. Why am I still here? Why do I still bother with this blog and channel even though I don’t see much progress? Why? Well because I love this. I love what I do. And yet all that I needed was one phone call to cause me to rethink everything that I have been doing. And as of yesterday I was ready to change everything to please this one person...to say goodbye to everything that to me so long to built (Im not even close to where I would like to be).
After talking to friends and family about the situation I realized that I shouldn’t be doing things to please one individual. If I decide to leave all this, it would have been because thats the choice that I have made. And until then you will see more content come your way. I will continue to inspire women to look and feel their best, that just because they are moms that they have to loose their sexiness, hide their curves and dress like nuns. No honey, life still continues after child bearing. So don’t let anyone dictate what you should do, follow your passion because that’s when your dreams will come true.
